  • Maintain accurate digital records for audits, billing, and reporting purposes.

Process Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to enhance workflow efficiency and operational processes.
  • Support SOP development, service implementation, and operational planning.
  • Participate in cross-functional meetings to contribute to company growth initiatives.

Financial & Administrative Duties

  • Review vendor invoices and charges for accuracy before approval.
  • Assist accounting with file costing, billing, and revenue reconciliation.
  • Provide backup support to team members and assist management with special projects.

Qualifications

The ideal candidate is high-energy, solution-oriented, and takes ownership of their work. You are someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, values accountability, and enjoys collaborating with a dynamic team.

  • Minimum 3–4 years of freight forwarding experience (air, ocean, and ground).
  • Strong knowledge of logistics processes, Incoterms, international trade documentation, and customs requirements.
  • Ability to multitask while maintaining high accuracy and attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication and coordination skills with clients, carriers, and overseas agents.
